Phonon Bottleneck Identification in Disordered Nanoporous Materials
Nanostructured materials are promising as thermoelectrics since thermal transport can be suppressed with little degradation in electrical properties, a crucial requirement for high-efficiency thermal energy conversion. Porous materials offer a flexible platform thanks to their extensive range of possible configurations and robust nature compared to other nanostructures. Although there has been ...
متن کاملCoherent phonon excitation in bismuth
Ultrafast time-resolved reflectivity of a bismuth thin film evaporated on a silicon substrate is measured to investigate coherent phonons in bismuth. The reflectivity result is analyzed by a linear chirp approximation to obtain the time dependent frequencies of coherent phonons. Not only the optical modes are detected, which are generated by a combination of impulsive stimulated Raman scatterin...
متن کاملPhonon bottleneck in graphene-based Josephson junctions at millikelvin temperatures.
We examine the nature of the transitions between the normal and superconducting branches in superconductor-graphene-superconductor Josephson junctions. We attribute the hysteresis between the switching (superconducting to normal) and retrapping (normal to superconducting) transitions to electron overheating. In particular, we demonstrate that the retrapping current corresponds to the critical c...
متن کاملAcoustic-optical phonon up-conversion and hot-phonon bottleneck in lead-halide perovskites
The hot-phonon bottleneck effect in lead-halide perovskites (APbX3) prolongs the cooling period of hot charge carriers, an effect that could be used in the next-generation photovoltaics devices. Using ultrafast optical characterization and first-principle calculations, four kinds of lead-halide perovskites (A=FA+/MA+/Cs+, X=I-/Br-) are compared in this study to reveal the carrier-phonon dynamic...
متن کاملFörster transfer outside the weak-excitation limit
The efficiency of resonance energy transfer can be used to determine nanometer-scale separations between dye molecules in a donor-acceptor pair. We argue that the standard method for making this determination in single-pair experiments is valid only when excitation by the applied field is much slower than the other photophysical processes in the system. We derive a simple relation between measu...
